Now we know why keeping Dems from appointing anyone to Supreme Court was so important for Mitch McConnell. This scheme was planned out for more than a decade and Democrats just babble babble babbled and did nothing to stop it from happening.

Here are posts dating back to 2017 on this blog, about Russian influence on USA through propaganda / misinformation https://cityofangels25.blogspot.com/search?q=Russia
Also
Here are posts dating back to 2019 on this blog, about eerie similarities between now and the years leading up to the 1994 Rwanda genocide https://cityofangels25.blogspot.com/search?q=Rwanda and considering the way my neighbors are being told by radio and other media to buy weapons, and sometimes to shoot liberals. Not a good sign.
Today the news events are so predictably going in the direction Trump's handlers want everything to go, no point in keeping up anymore. I keep writing the same warnings and Americans just keep blundering along right into anti-American traps.
In fact when I see how we live and dress and talk and our toothless mouths, USA already resembles Soviet / oligarch run Russia. Trump's one of the oligarchs.
I'm 75 years old and have been a working journalist and single parent most of my adult life, which means I missed out on a lot of fun, beauty, art, and ... who knows what else, and that's what I'm going to do for a while.
May post again here at City of Angels Blog, may not.
This is a weblog (blog) so it is only what it is in this moment.

laying it out simply
I've had this experience before. If what they are doing makes no sense, think of them as actually working for the opposition and infiltrating your group. All of a sudden everything they do makes sense. I'm applying that axiom to MAGA GOP members. Nothing they do makes sense, unless you think, well maybe they are actually working for Vladimir Putin. Then, everything they do makes sense.
Same experience I had during pedophile priest victim movement. Infiltrators did things that made no sense, 'til you said, they really work for the church.
Nothing MAGA GOP do makes sense UNLESS you think they are actually working for Putin. Then, everything they do makes sense.
Negativity Alert
I'm beginning to think Putin has already taken over our govt, that except for a few stragglers, this coup is DONE, and Democrats are guilty of letting this happen. RIP USA
In the '70s and '80s I worked with many Russian journalists, in Newsroom at NASA, so I learned then how Soviet tactics controlled information. So in 2013 first time I saw Fox News I knew Russia was using it to twist the truth. Broadcasting on every US cable station. We Let Them!
It's as if John LeCarre wrote a sci-fi horror genre book.
Coup Was Planned for Years.
Every appeal etc to stop MAGA is met with obstacles that seem to have been put there in advance. Shame on USA for watching TV and getting fat while this happened. RIP USA

Sowing distrust in elections is Spycraft 101. I am EMBARRASSED that Americans are so uninformed and lazy they didn't see what was happening to us as far back as 1994 when Fox News showed up, and stop it. Now Russian intelligence is entrenched in Congress, the Supreme Court, most cable media, and so many more places, even local governments around the nation. I'm shaking my head, sadly, saying Green Day's American Idiots are about to get what they deserve. And I'm hiding in the woods.
“Another coup attempt by Russia using not guns but Republicans” – Keith Olbermann re Comer Jordan Cabal today. Full quote here
If a group of agents or spies, Russian Nationals, did what GOP is doing today, "we would shoot and kill them.” Olbermann said.
(From YouTube Transcript)
This is Russia again and the Republicans again and Trump again and the right-wing media again and the attempt to fix our elections and the attempt to rip this nation apart from the inside and the attempt to run another coup against a duly elected government of the United States of America which-
11:20
If
it was done by a group of Agents, Spies, Russian Nationals, we would shoot and
kill them. But it's not just just another coup attempt by Russia using not guns
but Republicans. It's also another part of the last coup attempt. And if this
one weasel liar Smirnov can turn the special counsel the Republican
investigating Hunter Biden into the special Counsel suddenly investigating
Alexander Smirnov and James Comer.
11:50
What's
the rest of this story what have we not found under the rock yet, how else does
Smirnov link to Trump's conversation with Zelenskyy.
Does
he link to Russia's efforts to infiltrate the Trump campaign or the Trump
campaign's effort to utilize Russian Intel or both in 2016 or 2020 or both?
What
other cancers will track directly back to Alexander Smirnov's admission about
officials associated with Russian intelligence?
Hell,
Josh Marshall from TPM has said this for years years and he said it again
yesterday and godamn it of course he is right,
11:30
And
I'll quote him not just because he's right but because he has phrased it
poetically. Quoting Josh, the fabled Hunter Biden laptop was obviously the
product of a Russian influence operation.
*
The
fabled Hunter Biden laptop was obviously the product of a Russian influence
operation
*
The
story was absurd on its face. Somehow
Hunter Biden decided in a drugged up Fugue state that he needed to take his
laptop to a computer repair shop and then forgot about it
13:03
The
legally blind owner of the repair shop decided to crack it open and look at the
files as one does of course, and then somehow managed to get the contents to
Rudy Giuliani and Steve Bannon unquote.
So
what else is Under The Smirnov Rock?
Everything
Rudy Giuliani did, attorney general bar whitewashing Trump in the Mueller
report. That should have led to Trump's arrest for acting on behalf of a
foreign government and against the government of the United States.
How
many officials associated with Russian
intelligence have been involved, Mr. Smirnov, can you give us their names and addresses?
As
soon as I read that Smirnov admitted that officials associated with Russian
intelligence were involved Tuesday night, I posted that Comer had to resign
from Congress and Chuck Grassley from the Senate and Hannity from TV.
I'm
happy to say Congressman Eric Swalwell has picked this up in a more formal
setting. being a member of the House, and yesterday Swalwell posted that Comer
must resign because quote for the last two years he has done the work of
Russia's intelligence services to falsely attack President Biden.
*
“Swalwell
posted that Comer must resign because quote for the last two years he has done
the work of Russia's intelligence services to falsely attack President Biden”
*
14:23
There
has to be accountability correct, but accountability not just in the form of
the loss of a seat in the house prosecution. James Comer needs to die in prison.
And this needs a senate investigation and a special prosecutor.
And
once again Jesus please give me an excuse to get Merrick Garland fired if he
hesitates.
14:55
Because
James Comer is in effect a Russian agent and yes he needs to resign from the House
and Jim Jordan is in effect a Russian agent and he needs to resign from the House
and Marjorie Taylor Greene is in effect a Russian agent and she needs to resign
from the House and there's a Texas Congressman named Pat Fallon who accused the
Democrats of denying that the Smirnov FBI file even existed or was legitimate
and accused the media of lying about it and he is in effect a Russian agent and
he needs to resign from House and Chuck Grassley is in effect a Russian agent
and he needs to resign from the Senate-
15:36
And
Ted Cruz has spent a year spreading these lies on his podcast and he is in
effect a Russian agent and he needs to resign from the Senate and Sean Hannity
is in effect a Russian agent and he needs to resign from Fox and Maria Bartiromo
is in effect a Russian agent and she needs to resign from Fox and David Weiss
is in effect a Russian agent and he needs either to resign from the DOJ or flip
and Donald Trump is a Russian agent and he needs to withdraw from the
presidential race.
16:22
If
any of what Alexander Smirnov has told investigators is true, any of it, this
time, then Alexander Smirnov is admitting to being part of a cabal of actual
Russian agents who found willing victims or accomplices or clients in the Comer Jordan Greene Grassley Hannity Trump end
of the GOP anti-American cesspool of any of what Smirnov has told investigators
this time is true, these people also need to be in jail…
17:26
And
of course Trump is a Russian agent so why would he stop doing what he is here?

I bet a lot of Americans are losing sleep these days.
I lie awake while my nation is infiltrated and slowly destroyed by wild-eyed brainwashed neighbors being used as a weapon against us. What Really Scares me is how much this MAGA coup is like Rwanda 1994, just on a much larger scale. Like wonder when the right wing media message will say, take your guns and shoot the liberals like radio station told Rwandans to pick up machetes and kill their neighbors. Wow. I am getting scared.

My homeless encounter w/Charlie Sheen
Ah Aging
Half audience booed, half cheered at Dylan concert 1965. I know, I was there
Republicans are like Catholic priests who claim to be celibate while screwing whenever they can. Today's Republicans take all the government money they can get while claiming to be self reliant and libertarian. -Me, Kay Ebeling Oct 12, 2012 on this blog

USA now Alice Through Looking Glass ass backwards
The Right embraced Russian Dissidents as if they were saints just a few decades back. From Rush Limbaugh to Young Republicans, people ESCAPING Russia were heroes.
They were ESCAPING PUTIN's government!!! Putin, the right's new ... superman.
Anyone else remember how Republicans embraced Russian Dissidents as if they were enlightened political prophets just a few decades back?
I keep thinking of the planeloads of Russian emigres that came to LA in 1980s w/Reagan's blessing. They filled up blocks of apartment buildings in East Hollywood, which at the time had too many vacancies... imagine.
From Rush Limbaugh to the Patriots' movement birth, the "refusenik's" who were ESCAPING Russia were heroes. Now USA is like Alice through the looking glass... in opposite land... making Putin whose world the dissidents were escaping, their new ... uberman.
Kay Ebeling especially since Vladimir Putin is using Trump as His puppet...

Trump is running USA from Mara Lago using Speaker of House as his puppet. We are living in a John LeCarre novel... especially since Vladimir Putin is using Trump as His puppet...

American Caste system takes shape in homeless encampments
There are videos of slums in India. L.A. seems heading to be like Calcutta or Mumbai. Their slums are what our "encampments" will look like in a few more years. Our uber capitalist system keeps sucking any wealth to the top, while the rest of us scrabble for crumbs to survive. USA needs a good dose of socialism, say it outright, the wealth of our nation belongs to all of us. Most homeless people have worked would work if there was work. Only a crass uncaring system lets unhoused people live like this. For Shame USA
THIS IS ANOTHER GOOD VIDEO OF THE ISSUE
Then take this look at Indian slums:
Even Las Vegas is going slum

One nation under Godfather
"They gotta pay for protection," Trump shouts to cheers. treating NATO like a thug shaking down a local barber. USA is about to be a nation run like organized crime.

If I can see it, what's wrong with Legacy Media?
As far back as 2017 I was blogging about the Russian influence on Trump
Almost like being brainwashed. Then it went on to next level of crazy
Just heard a line that describes what whoever is producing the right wing propaganda right now is doing to USA.
“It was so gradual over the months that you just kind of accepted the crazy. It's almost like being brainwashed. And then it went to the next level of crazy.” (Cecelia Pierce re Pamela Smart's tactic to get three high school kids including Pierce to kill Smart's husband)
It gets crazy for so long that crazy becomes normal.
Then it will go to the next level of crazy. Same kind of manipulation is going on today on a grand scale by anti American propagandists, for who knows what purpose.
Glad I'm living in the woods...

Someone got to Ketanji and Elena
Someone got to them. Why else would Ketanji Brown Jackson and Elena Kagan repeat MAGA sound bytes in Supreme Court hearing yesterday? Makes this blog post I wrote before watching hearing yesterday more true:
This coup is bigger than all of us, and complicating my life
Every time the DOJ or Dems try . . .
USA is lost. We are now just going through motions.
I think the Twin Towers are still falling down on us.
Why Not?
Dems should hold a convention and openly VOTE for a candidate for president. Imagine, all the press, all the Fun, all the younger more forward-moving candidates!

This coup is bigger than all of us, and complicating my life
Every time the DOJ or Dems try a way to put the brakes on Trump, immediately Trump’s people have an antidote. It's as if they know in advance how the DOJ or local judges are going to respond, like the Trumpers are carrying out strategies they planned decades ago. In fact getting Donald Trump elected was likely just part of their attack.
And now we are all playing out their script.
Who is “we”? who is “they”?
I wish I didn't care. Wish I could just hang out on a
couch and watch TV but I don't have a couch or a TV
They knew in advance what would happen if they got Trump in office in 2016, and they've been manipulating events to go their way since then. Now enemies of USA are sitting in a cave somewhere laughing at Americans as we fall for one of their traps after another as they manipulate the destruction of one American right and privilege after another.
Emotionally living through this coup is especially difficult for me, and curiously strange. Because at the same time as I'm having to disconnect from any emotional bond to my nation. . .
the USA that I sacrificed in many ways at many times in my life to serve, that I've felt deep attachment to since preteen years-
at the same time I'm having to let that inherent patriotism go. . .
I'm having to let go of my daughter. She has chosen the
streets of L.A. over me. When she cut me
off with no explanation last Christmas, I realized, she is sending me a message
that she does not want to say out loud, though she has said it out loud to me
before.
She's telling me she does not want me in her life. I
think she does not want me to see how bad it got for her.
So I have to let her go. Naranon meetings are helping.
At the same time my nation does not want me in its
sphere of concern.
So I have to let go of the United States at the same time I let go of my daughter. I don't usually blog about topics this personal, but I doubt many readers will get this far, I doubt my daughter or son will ever read this, but it just helps to know I wrote it, published it, and in so doing, made it reality.
***
Strange.
***
Also at the same time I have a dental cap in the front of my mouth that has come loose and I want it to fall out but it is grounded in deep. It's the third of four porcelain caps I got in the 1980s in L.A. that has fallen out of my mouth last few months, leaving me with goofy looking gaps in my mouth that would be embarrassing except that I don't smile much these days, so no one sees them.
This one cap just gets a little more loose every day but no matter how much I wiggle it, it won’t come out. I have a feeling when this cap finally comes out, I will have made a lot more progress in the mourning process I'm going through with my daughter and my nation.
Hope so.

One more note just if anyone ever reads this…
Everything was fine between me and my daughter, and my adult son who lives in Idaho, until around 2011-12.
I was in Chicago then doing “investigative journalism” trying to dig up proof of my case against the Chicago archdiocese for letting me be sexually assaulted over and over again by one of their priests, in Bartlett, when I was a little girl.
I was just starting to make progress on my case. At least I had found enough evidence to prove to myself
that it all really did happen, and I was trying to find evidence to prove the crimes
to other people.
Naively I was writing about the whole “investigation” experience
on my blog and anyone could read it.
Within a few days of each other, right after I wrote a post there in my little room in Chicago saying I now know my case really did happen, suddenly both my children cut me off.
Over Facebook.
It upset me so bad that I ended my “investigation” and came back home to L.A. as soon as I could to try to fix whatever went wrong.
I never got the chance.
Neither of my adult children has spoken or opened up in any way to me since then.
Then this year just as I thought my daughter and I were going to start healing, she at least had let me know where she was living and given me a phone number I could use to reach her---
She cut me off again. At Christmas time.
And I just know but cannot prove that the Church did something to cause both my children to cut me off at the same time that way. I never did finish my investigation...
***
I never returned to Chicago, never finished my “investigation” and I will never stop believing that the Church did something SOMETHING to make both my adult children turn against me with no explanation at that same time.
Back on topic for this blog post.
So while I live through the USA self destructing, I'm having to let go of hope that I’ll ever reunite with either of my children…
I have to let go of all of it- my nation, my family, my front tooth cap— all at the same time, and find something new to hold onto. Meanwhile I keep wiggling and wiggling the loose tooth cap, anticipating a relief when it all finally breaks free of me.
I have to accept that I may never know what really happened, to my family or my nation.

With the military might of the U.S. DOD, who’d a thunk our nation would be brought down by an orange clown. We have 10 times more nuclear weapons than any other nation, yet it only took carefully worded tweets by Russian propagandists to get Americans to self destruct.
Who’d a thunk

I watch as fascists take over USA one small library and govt agency at a time; I am unable to stop them with reasoned protest, as the propagandists are twisting every American ideal to their favor, and destroying us from within.
